Description

Pirates of the Savage Sea is an "Adventure Pack" (or DLC) for Might & Magic: Heroes VI. It contains a 2-maps campaign and a separate large scenario map. The Adventure Pack also adds new heroes, a new artifact set, a new Dynasty Weapon, a new Boss fight, a Pet, and a new building on the adventure map (the Elemental Conflux, which allows to recruit the various elemental neutral creatures).

The story of the campaign is centered around the new incarnation of Crag Hack, a classic Might & Magic character revamped to fit in the world of Ashan. Now a barbarian-pirate, the retired Crag Hack has been called back into action to hunt a powerful creature known as a Thunderbird. During the course of his quest, he will uncover a sinister plot.

The scenario map, called "A Princess of VARN", is a return to VARN, to world of the very first Might & Magic, for a new story taking place 25 years after the events of that game.

The Adventure Pack was released alongside a free patch that notably included new town screens similar to the ones seen in Heroes III, and a full overhaul of the game balance.
